  • Did you know that Rome had a green belt? In the late Republican period, the hills of Rome had lush and luxurious garden estates called "horti". In the Imperial period, most of the residences became imperial property and were individually refined and rebuilt by various imperial family members. We;ll take a look at what the remains today in the (sometimes stunning) archaeological sites, as well as the artefacts in some of Rome's greatest museums!

    Thank you! My only complaint is the videos are always too short. Fascinating and well presented. Grazie.

    Maecenas was a wealthy individual, but he must have been filthy rich to have made a garden estate like this and be a patron of poets.

    Thank you for your video. Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone's interested in Roman history and in a series about the history of the Urbs through the centuries I recommend Schwerpunkt's content. It would be amazing if there could be a coop, we honestly need more Roman history on TH-cam and you guys are making an amazing job. Keep it up!

    I stayed at the Hotel Medici in the area of the Horti Sallustiani. They have a Roman column in their courtyard.

    Amazing. I had no idea Doc, that such a luxury was used in decorating villas. Semi-precious stones?? I thought only the Mughals in India did that for places like the Taj Mahal. Wow. Thank you again for educating us

    Darius puts a lot of work into these videos and only gets like 12 comments and 3k views.
    But I dont think its because of the content but how modern zoomers consume information.
    The people who do consume Darius' content seem to generally older people in their throws and people in their 20-30's that already know too much about each topic and have come to criticize. And a very small ammount of people genuinely are interested in the subject by choice early on, and are learning, and have an appreciation for the ammount of work and more importantly the passion put into the work of the author , like my self.

    Dumb question why were people shorter back then? Was it because of nutrition?

    I think you should specify “80s BCE”, maybe not everyone is as familiar with Roman history as you and many of us are. Forty years ago, I would have had no idea when the Republican Period was. Then, I read Colleen McCullough’s wonderful Masters of Rome series, and have been obsessed with Roman history ever since. (Unfortunately, the Audible series is abridged, I absolutely hate that! Yes, it’s a long series, all the better, I don’t want anything cut out).
